VGI: Review: Defiance: "A bare-bones world that lacks any real sense of accomplishment."

Wesley Copeland of VGI writes:

"The world of videogames is an industry built upon copy-cat culture. Once a unique idea becomes popular, said idea is bled dry until only those willing to put their own spin on it remain."

I disagree that this game is poorly done. True the game is simple, but thats what makes it fun. This game isn't trying to be Bioshock Infinite or anything fancy. It's just a fun third person shooter. Yes it is simple, but that is whats good about the game.

This is the perfect game to just mellow out on and party up with people while doing some coop stuff. It's not that anyone thing stands out about the game, it's that nothing is really bad about it. This is the perfect game for coming home from a hard day of work or school work and relaxing too. You can shut your brain off and just have fun.

There has to be room for games like that and I feel like to many games are trying to be way to serious nowadays. Plus, there is no monthly fees. Right now the connection issues on 360 is annoying, but it's the first week and things will get better. Overall, I am glad I brought this game on 360.

MysticStrummer4036d ago

VGI's opinions shall be ignored by me henceforth. Defiance is the most addictive game I've played in a long time.

antz11044035d ago

Agreed, this game is awesome. Its not a ten but sure as hell not a five.

RogueSmurf4035d ago

couldn't agree more, fair review

InfiniteBullets4035d ago

5/10 get the hell outta here. Get the baby powder and smack yourself with it. This game is alot of fun its like socom meets borderlands. Its not a 10 or nothing like that but it deserves nothing short of a 8.5 at least.

I had a good time with the original Defiance years back, honestly.

Silly gameAr1154d ago

Me too. I remember putting a lot of hours into it before it went free to play. After, it went f2p, I didn't play it near as much, but it makes me nostalgic.

darthv721154d ago

I liked the show and picked up a sealed collectors edition of the 360 game for $5 at a thrift store a couple years ago.

isarai1155d ago

It had a good run honestly, way better than it had any business being, especially for it to be part of a tv series

boing11155d ago

Yeah, I'm surprised it went for so long too. Tried the game but didn't click for me. I liked the TV series, though.

isarai1155d ago

I gave it about a dozen hours, was fun even tho MMOs aren't my thing. But to even keep me around that long is impressive lol

psynetik1231155d ago

Paid $11 for this POS way back and I still felt ripped off

Usually pro has the higher or more stable fps. Hopefully that trend doesn’t happen again this game.

thrust2181d ago

Xbox X a lot more powerful allways the better 3rd party games, The truth hurts 👍

bluefox7552181d ago

@thrust Yeah, the newer, more expensive hardware seems to play games a little better. Shocking, right? Personally, I like 60fps on most games, so I go for the best version, on PC, not X.

RobLoPR2181d ago

@bluefox... so PC is cheaper than Xbox One X?

rdgneoz32181d ago

"allways the better 3rd party games"

Because it has no good first party games since they all get delayed or canned?

Realms2181d ago

@ thrust

No the truth is that a good PC runs circles around the X but some of you constantly try to make it seem like the X is better than PC wrong.

@ RobLoPR

You gotta love the goal posting the argument isn't about price point the argument is where you can get the best performance and the answer is PC. MS fanboys love taunting the power card the only problem is that a good PC can and always will outperform consoles.

iplay1up22181d ago

That is not true. Time and time again the X has been the best platform for 3rd party games. Usually FPS on the X are higher too. Just look at Assassins Creed Origins X compared to Pro Digital Foundry has.

Next Gen it wont matter. I just don't know what Sony and Microsoft are planning for next gen. This is the first MAJOR mid gen upgrade for a console. I just paid $499 for Xbox One X, and Pro is $399. If next gen starts in 2019. What kind of power will the consoles have? What price?BTW, not only does the X have more power than pro, but also a 4K BluRay player. Which Pro doesn't have. That is what makes the X $100 more than pro.

Oh we're talking hardware, because I was going to list some other differences.

nowitzki20042181d ago

I seen an article in gameinformer that MS will be releasing an Xbox One F. $899 with 8% increase over Xbox One X. First time I seen or heard anything about it. Is it true or was it a joke?

AnubisG2181d ago

Never heard of that. Most likely a joke.

nowitzki20042181d ago (Edited 2181d ago )

I didnt have time to read through it, but I really wouldnt be surprised so did not know how to take it lol.

I think its May 2018 issue.. Spiderman on cover.

slavish02181d ago

this is a last gen game it should be 4k60

PS3_Noob2181d ago (Edited 2181d ago )

If X could do 60fps compared to Pro 30fps may be it would matter more. Otherwise both can do well over 1080P which is more than enough. Games is what matters most.
